We associate with each simple Lie algebra a system of second-order differential equations invariant under a non-compact real form of the corresponding Lie group. In the limit of a contraction to a Schr\"odinger algebra, these equations…

This note surveys the well-known structure of G-manifolds and summarizes parts of two papers that have not yet appeared in print: one with joint with J. Bruning and F. W. Kamber, and another with I. Prokhorenkov. In particular, from a given…

We provide new families of compact complex manifolds with no K\"ahler structure carrying symplectic structures satisfying the \textit{Hard Lefschetz Condition}. These examples are obtained as compact quotients of the solvable Lie group…

Let $\Gamma$ be a Schottky semigroup in $\mathrm{SL}_2(\mathbf{Z})$, and for $q\in \mathbf N$, let $\Gamma(q):=\{\gamma\in \Gamma: \gamma= e \text{ (mod $q$)}\}$ be its congruence subsemigroup of level $q$. We prove the following uniform…

We construct families of birational involutions on $\mathbb{P}^3$ or a smooth cubic threefold which do not fit into a non-trivial elementary relation of Sarkisov links. As a consequence, we construct new homomorphisms from their group of…

Let A be a cosemisimple Hopf *-algebra with antipode S and let $\Gamma$ be a left-covariant first order differential *-calculus over A such that $\Gamma$ is self-dual and invariant under the Hopf algebra automorphism S^2. A quantum Clifford…

Let T be a k-regular tree (k>2) and A its automorphism group. We analyze a generic finitely generated subgroup Gamma of A. We show that Gamma is free and establish a trichotomy on the closure of Gamma: it is either discrete, compact or has…

In the framework of McKay correspondence we determine, for every finite subgroup $\Gamma$ of $\mathbf{SL}_4\mathbb{C}$, how the finite dimensional irreducible representations of $\mathbf{SL}_4\mathbb{C}$ decompose under the action of…

We consider the structure of groups and algebras that can be represented as automorphisms or derivations of distributive products -- which includes nonassociative rings, modules, forms, and commutation of groups and nonassociative loops. In…

For a Lie group $G=\R^{n}\ltimes_{\phi}\R^{m}$ with the semi-simple action $\phi:\R^{n}\to {\rm Aut}(\R^{m})$, we show that if $\Gamma$ is a finite extension of a lattice of $G$ then $K(\Gamma, 1)$ is formal. Moreover we show that a compact…

In this note we prove the following theorem: Let $G$ be a compact Lie group acting on a compact symplectic manifold $M$ in a Hamiltonian fashion. If $L$ is an $l$-dimensional closed invariant submanifold of $M$, on which the $G$-action is…

We discuss how the global geometry and topology of manifolds depend on different group actions of their fundamental groups, and in particular, how properties of a non-trivial compact 4-dimensional cobordism $M$ whose interior has a complete…

In this paper, we investigate several structural properties for crossed product ${\rm II_1}$ factors $M$ arising from free Bogoljubov actions associated with orthogonal representations $\pi : G \to \mathcal O(H_\mathbf R)$ of arbitrary…

We use chain level genus zero Gromov-Witten theory to associate to any closed monotone symplectic manifold a formal group (loosely interpreted), whose Lie algebra is the odd degree cohomology of the manifold (with vanishing bracket). When…

Algebraic models for equivariant rational homotopy theory were developed by Triantafillou and Scull for finite group actions and $S^1$ action, respectively. They showed that given a diagram of rational cohomology algebras from the orbit…

We show that the (topological) full group of a minimal pseudogroup over the Cantor set satisfies various rigidity phenomena of topological dynamical and combinatorial nature. Our main result applies to its possible homomorphisms into other…

When a finite group acts linearly on a complex vector space, the natural semi-direct product of the group and the polynomial ring over the space forms a skew group algebra. This algebra plays the role of the coordinate ring of the resulting…

In this note we study the behavior of symplectic cohomology groups under symplectic deformations. Moreover, we show that for compact almost-K\"ahler manifolds $(X,J,g,\omega)$ with $J$ $\mathcal{C}^\infty$-pure and full the space of de Rham…

In \cite{BAMU}, an ergodic theorem \`a la Birkhoff-von Neumann for the action of the fundamental group of a compact negatively curved manifold on the boundary of its universal cover is proved. A quick corollary is the irreducibility of the…
